And the word of the day is: PANACEA!

Topic of the Day:  I remember watching Star Blazers in the morning before school, and The Banana Splits after school.  I know that there were others, but I don't remember what they were. ::)

Today, I'll be home doing not much of anything...maybe making another Blu-ray.  We'll see.

Have a good day, all!

My computer is being wonky this morning, and I had to restart it three times.  I think it's back to normal now.

I have no real plans for today.  I've got a huge pile of bootleg DVDs that need to be organized, so I want to work on that.

Thanks to everyone for the good wishes yesterday and the nice thoughts.....they go a long way!

Yes DR VIXMOM this here site was most essential during those weeks.

DR JANE it was such a whirlwind, I really didn't allow myself to have a negative thought - I figured that was counterproductive.  The only time I really had a few sobering moments was when I was getting readied for surgery.  My brother & sister had talked to me and left the room, the doctor came in to talk....and then I was alone ALL BY MESELF lying in that bed as the anesthetic dripped into me.....and all I could think of was "The Road Not Taken".....

Superman
Rocky Jones
The Mickey Mouse Club
The Little Rascals

I have been watching a few episodes of The Lone Ranger and The Roy Rogers Show on a local channel.

It seems that on a lot of LR episodes, the villains are folks that are introduced as upstanding citizens - bank presidents, sheriffs, lawyers and the like....that happens A LOT!

We saw The Lone Ranger & The Lost City of Gold at the drive in.....

One question, have all of you who received your checks already filed your 2019 taxes?

Yes. I filed early in February. I do my own with TurboTax, and nowadays I always file both federal and state online and use direct deposit when there's a refund.

Today, an ADVENTURE:

I'll be going to the post office to mail DR JohnG.'s DVDs.

Isn't that exciting?

It's amazing to realize how long I've staying home. My last time out was going to the bank drive-thru on Saturday morning, and it was at least several days before that that I was last in a store. All of the shopping has been done by my lovely housemates who take all the precautions, so, knock wood, we're doing good here.

But I don't think filing the 2019 taxes is supposed to make any difference, since they aren't even due now. If you haven't done 2019, they'll use what you filed for 2018.

Defining childhood TV as the true kiddie stuff...

Ding Dong School
Romper Room
Howdy Doody
Captain Kangaroo
Mickey Mouse Club

I'm sure I'm forgetting a couple of important ones. I know there are a couple of local (Columbus, Ohio) ones whose names and personalities are sadly forgotten. I must do some research on that sometime.

Other than those, and certainly later on, it would be the sitcoms...

The Honeymooners
I Love Lucy
Love That Bob
My Little Margie
Danny Thomas

And I *know* there are too many of these to remember!
